Bath re-enamelling near Nash

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Nash

Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without taking anything out. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. We work on cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people get in touch are enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and lots of chips and rust spots.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

How to look after the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Get any chip repaired quickly

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

What we cannot put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • A bath that’s rusted through
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Acrylic baths
  • Cast iron baths
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Pressed steel baths

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Repair or replace in Nash?

A replacement often means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and typically a day, and the bath is usable the day after. Prices start from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why book with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Most jobs done in one visit

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes the best part of a day. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the next day.

Preparing for the visit

Questions from Nash

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

Usually, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

How long will the bath be out of use?

Typically a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your BA22 postcode.

Do you cover Nash?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Nash and the rest of Somerset. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will there be fumes?

Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

Repairs by material

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Nash

Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • Wear marks under the taps
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What protection goes down before work starts
